Work in progress

This study will examine whether the Department for Work and
Pensions and the Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission are
well placed to establish cost-effective child maintenance
arrangements in the future.

This study will examine whether the Research Councils' Shared
Service Centre project has been delivered to plan, will take
a view on whether the shared service centre is likely to be fit for
purpose in the near future and identify wider lessons for
Government.

This study will examine how the Department gains assurance on
the business and financial management capability within schools and
local partners (for example local authorities) to support
structured cost reduction in schools.

This study will examine whether the existing range of health and
social care budgets can be used more effectively to treat
progressive neurological conditions, such as Parkinson's Disease,
Multiple Sclerosis and Motor Neurone Disease.

This report is an early evaluation of the feasibility of the
Strategy based on an assessment of the risks to its delivery and
the extent to which the resources, leadership and processes that
need to be in place, are being firmly established.

Our study will examine the Department’s
approach to identifying the budget reductions. We will assess
whether the Department followed a reasonable process that would
protect value for money as far as possible.
